Joint lifetime modeling with matrix distributions
Acyclic phase-type (PH) distributions have been a popular tool in survival analysis, thanks to their natural interpretation in terms of aging toward its inevitable absorption.

flexCWM: A Flexible Framework for Cluster-Weighted Models
Cluster-weighted models (CWMs) are mixtures of regression models with random covariates. However, besides having recently become rather popular in statistics and data mining, there is still a lack of support for CWMs within the most popular statistical ...

Variable selection in finite mixture of median regression models using skew-normal distribution
A regression model with skew-normal errors provides a useful extension for traditional normal regression models when the data involve asymmetric outcomes.

logbin: An R Package for Relative Risk Regression Using the Log-Binomial Model
Relative risk regression using a log-link binomial generalized linear model (GLM) is an important tool for the analysis of binary outcomes. However, Fisher scoring, which is the standard method for fitting GLMs in statistical software, may have ...

Determination of Load Equivalency Factors by Statistical Analysis of Weigh-In-Motion Data
The load equivalency factors for pavement design currently in use by the Hungarian standard have been developed using Weigh-in-Motion data obtained during the first few years of operations after installing some 30 measuring sites in Hungary in 1996.

A probabilistic analysis of a leader election algorithm [PDF]
A {\em leader election} algorithm is an elimination process that divides recursively into tow subgroups an initial group of n items, eliminates one subgroup and continues the procedure until a subgroup is of size 1.

Spatially multi-scale dynamic factor modeling via sparse estimation
In many spatio-temporal data, their spatial variations have inherent global and local structures. The spatially continuous dynamic factor model (SCDFM) decomposes the spatio-temporal data into a small number of spatial and temporal variations, where the ...

This article presents the Poisson-Inverse Gamma regression model with varying dispersion for approximating heavy-tailed and overdispersed claim counts. Our main contribution is that we develop an Expectation-Maximization (EM) type algorithm for maximum ...
